Comments

From Ryan : Alice and her friends are playing baseball, which hits a window in an abandoned house. Alice is knocked unconscious while going into the house to retrieve it. I enjoy the dream sequence where she is in Spookville. One scene shows two ghosts playing Mahjohng while another plays piano. The final scene, however, doesn't make a whole lot of sense. After the cop discovers Alice in the house, he takes her to jail. Just to tell the truth here, a cop would not send a child to jail for breaking into an abandoned house. This is a fairly good cartoon, but not among my favorites.

I have seen "Alice's Spooky Adventure" and would like to
